Displaying Music Notation (Score)
You can view the music notation of the selected Song. We suggest that you read through the music notation before
starting to practice.
n • The PSR-3000/1500 can display the music notation of commercially-available music data or your recorded Songs.
• The displayed notation is generated by the PSR-3000/1500 based on the Song data. As a result, it may not be exactly the same as
commercially available sheet music of the same song—especially when displaying notation of complicated passages or many
short notes.
• The notation functions cannot be used to create Song data by inputting notes. For information on creating Song data, see
page 141.
